I know I don’t usually post on Saturdays but I need to do a test because many subscribers to this blog haven’t been getting emails. I think I have finally figured it out, but who knows.
This is a black backed jackal, nipping at a lion’s tail. The lion had a wildebeest kill and was taking her sweet time with it. When jackals begin to get impatient waiting, they’ll sometimes try to annoy the lion to get it to leave. There were two jackals and they were walking circles around the lion, yapping. This guy got bold enough to sneak up and nip the lion’s tail. The tactic didn’t work and the jackals eventually gave up and left.
